Flirt the(m)all by themarioga

[raw]
made by themarioga for LD 40 (JAM)

A friend made a bet with you: "If you can tie yourself to all the people in a mall, I'll give you 1,000,000 dollars.". So here you are, in a mall, with many strange people. You have to accomplish their missions to make them your "special friends", but be careful because some people are VERY jealous. :two_hearts:

Looks weird, plays wierd. Overall just a hella weird game. It was definitely an intresting experience, I've never played anything like it.

Cool concept, a bit rushed backgrounds but good art overall. Only bad thing I could mention is that I found it a bit confusing, not sure if I'm doing it wright or not, needs some feedback. Besides that, Nice work.

More seriously, you can choose between two charmismatic characters, seduce other funny-looking characters, with some nice graphs for a jam and funny backgrounds (at laughed at the cinema). Maybe a little repetitive, a sprint option woukd have been cool, but that's a nice little game !

oh congratulation! Nice art! Can I follow it also on indiexpo? Do you have also a page there? This looks great! I looked for the games that used the #LDJAM but I don't find yours. So good luck!! I will hope to make a video about it!

The gameplay could need some more complexity to it but the art/the animations and the music are prefect and make up for that. Has a very vibrant and lovely mood to it and did I already talk about the music?

Good stuff! A creative and well-executed use of the theme, sold by quality art (love the character animation!) and really effective/theme-appropriate UI elements like the heart pointer and the flashing pink cones of jealousy. My only gripe would be that the visuals clash a bit in places - going from tiled floors with elaborate textures to tiles that are flat colors, etc.

Fun game ! Really liked the design of the characters !

Cool game - I can see that you went for "gender neutral" look. At least that's how I see it - found the idea a bit too sexist and wanted to tone it up a bit? ;D

We had very similar idea, and very similar problem and the solution (gender neutral characters) But we went in the different direction at the end :)

Very nice game anyways.

The mall and characters are very pretty ! The character could be made less floaty and maybe the navigation handled with a map (the big arrow is a bit disruptive and has a ... ahem ... distinctive shape ? :) ) Impressive overall, potential !!!!!

The background and character design/animations were great. I liked playing it, but was pretty bad. Sound fit in really well. Good job!

I like the title, the look, the feel, and it seems fresh. I also liked how you could have different play experiences by choosing a different character. Nice work.

Very creative game! Funny graphics and odd objective. I kinda failed to be the Mall "snake" and the "vision area" of your many boyfriends are kinda buggy (HTML5 version). Very fun to play. :)

Interesting concept but I didn't really get it? I satisfied one person's request but soon after they seemed to come after me and I immediately got a game over. I wasn't sure what the number in the top left meant or if that was related. Some sort of tutorial or more explanation would help a lot here I think. Nice job on the graphics & music btw!

Personally not a fan of the theme, but as a game mechanic, it's quite good. I didn't understand what the target number in the upper left was. "E" to talk would make more sense if there were people behind the cash registers.

Suggested feature: You need money to pay for everything, so add a cash variable which you spend in the mall and have to collect somehow.

Huge effort, I liked the layers of building up a connection and then having to suddenly start avoiding the characters. Music was great, a lot of detail. Good job. Feel free to check out my game if you like running your friends into trees. https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/40/run-guys

Good production values, but not very engaging gameplay. I tried it twice, both times was a long boring fetch quest followed by instant death. I didn't feel like the deaths were my fault; maybe if some radar or arrows warned of the exes from further away, and if the shops had fewer dead ends?

I feel like the game is a tad repetitive, but the amount of content is impressive ! The art and sound design are nice, the game is also funny :) good job !
